The Dolphin Nautilus CC and Nautilus CC Plus are both well-regarded robotic pool cleaners, with the Plus model offering extra features at a higher cost. Both models have the ability to quickly clean a pool and navigate around obstacles. They are considered a cost-effective option among top-shelf robotic pool cleaners.
The decision between the two models comes down to whether the additional features of the Plus model are worth the added cost, or if the basic model’s cleaning capabilities are sufficient. Ultimately, the pool owner’s budget for a Dolphin Nautilus will determine the right choice.
What separates the two models?
In terms of performance, both cleaners have the Clever Clean feature that scans a pool and creates an optimal cleaning course that maximizes time. Both have access to the same filters and the same scrubbing technology. Both can cover the same basic portion of a pool.
The CC Plus has a longer power cord so that it can cover more pools. It also has a better tangle-free operation and slightly larger filters. For obvious reasons, the Plus model has an advantage.
Cost Comparison
As stated previously, these two models are similar cleaners, with the CC Plus having additional features. It is therefore expected that the CC is more budget-friendly. You are paying for less. When considering two models with different prices and features, it may be worth comparing which one offers the best value. In this case, the CC offers Dolphin Nautilus-quality cleaning at a lower cost.
Endurance
As both models share the same frame, neither one has an advantage in terms of durability. Despite some subtle differences in features and add-ons, these do not affect the overall durability of the cleaner. Therefore, no advantage exists.
Build
Again, the design of these models is quite straightforward. The Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus is created to be a slightly more advanced pool cleaner than the CC. It is slightly bigger, but also has slightly bigger filters and a slightly longer attached power cord. It can handle a larger pool, as a result, and clean longer between maintenance downtime periods. Under those circumstances, the advantage is with the CC Plus.
Dolphin Nautilus CC At a Glance
The Dolphin Nautilus CC is a high-performing basic robotic pool cleaner, it comes with the Clever Clean system that utilizes onboard sensors to map out an optimal cleaning path in a pool. Once in operation, Clever Clean can detect obstacles and avoid them. It is fast and can clean walls as well as it can clean a pool floor.
Unlike other top-performing robotic pool cleaners, it won’t break the bank in doing the job. It’s about the same cost as a good pressure-side pool cleaner and comes with the added bonus of not requiring the additional purchase of a booster pump.
Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus At a Glance
The Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus is an upgrade to the basic model, it includes all the great features of a Dolphin Nautilus CC and improves upon them. It has the Clever Clean system that can map out the best, fastest route to cleaning your pool, and when in operation, can dodge obstacles.
It has a dual-layered filter system that sorts large debris from grit, making for faster, easier cleaning and return to action. The CC Plus also includes a slightly longer power cord for greater reach and slightly larger filters to either accommodate a larger pool or make life easier for pool owners. It also won’t break the bank to make this happen.
Recap
Both the Nautilus CC and the Nautilus CC Plus are superior robotic pool cleaners. Both models have the Clever Clean feature that scans a pool to optimize the cleaning path around it and can dodge obstacles on a pool bottom before returning to the originally charted path. Both models clean walls and floors with equal quality and come with a dual filter system that helps separate debris by size for easy cleaning. For top-performing robotic pool cleaners, neither will break the bank.
The CC Plus is the go-to option for larger pools, offering advanced features like tangle-free operation, bigger filters, and a longer power cord. This model is the best fit for bigger pools.
For those who want a cleaner that needs less maintenance and doesn’t mind spending more, the CC Plus is a perfect choice. However, if you’re looking for the same outstanding cleaning performance as the Dolphin Nautilus without any additional features, the CC is the model for you.
